Individual Throttle Bodies

Just wondering if this is something that could be benificial to the n/a cobalts if a vendor was to make them? And what if any are the benifits of them becides no real intake? And what about taking the chance with non filtered air? Any info would be sweet, thanks in advance.

Google answered my filter quesion;


Holy **** look at the time fken 5:30 AM!!!! Ok im out.

 

Non-filtered air?

 

^See 2nd pic.



BUMP for some real answers.

 

ITBs look cool and are great for racing applications but on the street they are VERY temperamental. Tuning them so that you get a decent idle is extremely tough and tuning in general is going to be tougher then the average tuner wants to mess with.

Without getting real technical, they aren't great for street cars.

 

OK well that explains why you dont see them more often, they do look cool tho! Thanks.

 

yeah mang they are really made for serious racing

 

i think with this tune it would be alot easyer for me.... over my smt-7 . im running 4-in-1 header,3in down pipe, 2 1/2 cat back system . with the lsj supercharger, full porting and 15 psi with gm stage 2 pully and injectors. and blower cams. it would make my car make even more power and get beter milage..

im the first 2.2 supercharged. 9mos. 40,000 miles later at 15 psi and no engine internals...

 

I posted this a Long Time Ago. The Brits have had them for awhile.

 

Kinsler makes eco-ITBs

been doing them for the roush racing apps

 

BMW has been puting ITB's on there cars for years (Old M3 is an ITB inline6, New M3 ITB V8, and the M5 ITB V10)

There should be mo issues useing them on the street.

So where the heck would that go on our engine? Where the injectors currently are? I'm lost on this but I like the idea.

I've been looking for a reason to mount a snorkel scoop on the balt

 

They replace the Intake Mani and Throttle Body. Those Injectors pictured are not needed for our cars.

 

Here are some pics of Kinsler Ecotec ITB's on our All Motor Cobalt.

 

looking at that last picture i just got an idea for a new intake manifold for the lsj using the s/c

 

I don't fully understand what you mean.. You mean you want to put ITB's on your supercharged 2.2. Unless I'm missing something or you are a hell of a fabricator you can't put ITB's on a forced induction car.

 

yes you can esp. with turbos

 

aww yes ESP, electronic skip protection.

 

or extra sensory perception

 

who ever said itb's are bad on the street don't have a freakin clue.

whoever said itb's and forced induction doesn't work. you need to stop posting.

 

Thank You

 

that was me haha.. i'm still farely new to ITB's. So now i know you can do that.. thats what i'm here for... learning. I shoulda used common sense.. but i didnt

 

Area just made you his bitches

 

stating common knowledge on here tends to do that.

 

suprise suprise!
